A wind powered generator converts wind energy into electrical energy. Assume that the generator converts a fixed fraction of win

d energy intercepted by its blades into electrical energy. For wind speed v electric power will be proportional to

I'd go for b) v squared.
Wind is air in motion. So, it has kinetic energy. For a given mass of air at a certain speed, the kinetic energy would be (1/2)mv^2.
Since everything else in the chain seems to be proportional, then it's the v^2 bit that seems to be important. Hence the answer I post here.

Why is gravitational acceleration almost always a factor in determining pressure?
Scorpion4ik [409]

Explanation:

Newton's law of universal gravitation states that every object attracts every other object with a force. For any two objects, this force is directly proportional to the mass of each object. The greater the masses, the greater the force of attraction between them. Newton also deduced that this force decreases as the square of the distance between the centers of the objects increases. The farther away the objects are from each other, the less the force of attraction between them.

Answer:

Parts of a transverse wave include:

Crest - the highest point on the wave

Trough - the lowest point on the wave

Wavelength - the distance from one crest to the next crest, or one trough to the next trough

Amplitude - the displacement of the wave from the midpoint to the highest point (crest) or the lowest point (trough)

Answer:

 t = 5 10² s

Explanation:

Light is an electromagnetic wave that travels at a constant speed of 3 10⁸ m/s in vacuum.

The distance from the Sun to the Earth is 150 10⁶ km

Let's reduce the distance to the SI system

       x = 150 10⁶ km (10³ m / 1 km) = 150 10⁹ m

Since the velocity is constant, we can use the uniform motion relations

       v = x / t

       t = x / v

let's calculate

       t = 150 10⁹ / 3 10⁸

       t = 5 10² s

Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

A is false

Explanation:

A is false.

● activation energy affects the rate of a reaction and catalyst affects the rate of reaction too

ΔG (change in free energy) tells if a reaction is spontaneous or not
